Ah.. stupidly I did know how to do this..
What I was asking then was how to use the slash as the shortcut for a different 
character.. of course no need.
I prefer the bass to be below - scans more neatly to me. I know the alternate 
root or polychord distinction but in practise I would never expect just the 
symbol to reliably get me a polychord anyway.
